Well that was shite

This is not how I pictured this going. Reset and get after it.

this lot is not ready to challenge for the title

We all knew that. Too much naivety in the side and tonight a perfect example. Starting off so lethargic and uninterested at our bogey ground and a team we knew would be up for it as history has always showed. 

[NikkiCFC 7,955]

I said play 442. We now have two wingers who are not that. 

[Azul 1,615]

It feels like we are playing with 10 men with Havertz in the side. I hope Lampard makes quick substitutions and brings on Tino Anjorin for Kai.

I don't care what it'll do to his confidence, we need to get the 3 points!

[Hutcho 8,443]

Put Timo in the middle FFS

We can't we don't have any wide players. Only way would be to play a 3-5-2.

All keepers make mistakes. All of them. Without exception.

But it's back-to-back brainless mistakes. The best keepers certainly shouldn't be making such mistakes. 

[Pizy 18,368]

Probably our worst half since West Brom. It's as if we didn't expect this sort of setup from Everton.

Just lobbing in cross after cross and hoping Giroud gets his head to one. 

[Vesper 28,859]

Havertz is so not a winger

almost all his danger comes from when he is in the middle of the pitch (go watch Bayer highlights)

whether as a 10 or an SS or a CF

Yeah, I am amazed SFL has gone 433. If he wants to keep that then he needs to get Dave on and put James at RWF. 

[Vesper 28,859]

Frank needs to think about a 4 4 2, given our winger issues

[DDA 9,690]

Havertz has no confidence in what he is doing. The price tag is weighing heavily on the young lads shoulders. He needs to be playing in Girouds position with Werner playing off him In my opinion. 

James is immense man. What a player.

Its not over lads. We can still win this. 

[Jase 43,479]

Games like this one show why Giroud shouldn't be first choice. Everton look comfortable dealing with an immobile striker...

not playing like shite we won't

[Milan 17,854]

A second half ala West Brom away please. Please 

(I knew there was something to the claim that I would rather lose points to Leeds than Ziyech for several weeks.)

[Pizy 18,368]

I would suggest it's time to move Werner back up top but then our already shocking width gets worse.

Tino is basically a less experienced Kai. Not very explosive or dangerous 

That's exactly the opposite of what Tino is. His problem is that he is only ever explosive. As I've posted many times to say, Tino is an all-or-nothing player. He's being devastating or he's not doing much at all.
